As part of our continued growth, Bell Lamb & Joynson are looking for a talented and ambitious individual to join our growing Family team. The ideal candidate will provide legal and administrative support to the Family Law team, assisting with a range of matters including divorce, financial remedy, child arrangements, and domestic abuse cases. The role involves working closely with solicitors, clients, and external agencies to ensure effective case management and a high standard of client care.
 
 The role is initially office‑based, moving to a hybrid arrangement on completion of probation. The successful candidate will be hands‑on and collaborative, confident in managing their own workload, and comfortable balancing high standards of client care with the pace and demands of a busy Family team. Strong communication skills are essential, along with the ability to manage expectations, prioritise effectively, and support clients with empathy and professionalism throughout often sensitive and emotionally challenging matters.

We’re one of the fastest‑growing traditional high street firms across Merseyside, North Cheshire, and the surrounding areas, with our success driven by great service, strong client relationships, and the people who deliver them.

We work hard to create a supportive, down‑to‑earth environment where colleagues are trusted to work commercially, make sound decisions, and take ownership of their files. As the firm continues to grow, so do the opportunities within it, and many of our current team members have built long‑term careers here, developing their expertise, broadening their responsibilities, and progressing in a way that feels sustainable and rewarding.
